My First Time Hearing INXS. Or In Excess? Or I-N-X-S? Vocal Analysis of "Never Tear Us Apart"

I was super sceptical coming into this analysis, not knowing how to pronounce INXS having never heard of them before. That's usual, right? But reading that the song selection here of "Never Tear Us Apart" was a hauntingly beautiful ballad piqued my interest. And now, I need to hear way, way more of them!
Join professional opera singer Elizabeth Zharoff, as she listens to INXS for the first time, performing "Never Tear Us Apart”.

Unfortunately I didn’t get to see them live before Michael died, but did see them on tour w/JD Fortune, after he won Rock Star: INXS to become the new lead singer. It was actually a really great show, even without Michael, tbh. Everyone (myself included) was on their feet throughout the show, dancing and singing along the whole time. It was so much fun! They’re such a tight act, they play off each other so well, they truly are an incredible live act.

My wife and I came from very different backgrounds and when we met we became friends almost immediately. I was 19 and she was 24. We grew to admire each other’s perspectives and fell in love. (I was a metalhead and she loves opera, but we are broadening our horizons and embracing all great music) We have been married for 24 years now. She chose this song as our wedding song. Every time I hear it, the line “I love your precious heart” strikes me. That’s what we found the most beautiful about each other. Funny, at the time, I thought it was a strange song to choose but I realize she made a brilliant choice every time we listen to it. Not many songs like it being written anymore. Keep up the great work!

First of all, I can not b 0:53 elieve that you have never heard this iconic classic rock band. Australian rock band INXS was an excellent band, and their lead singer, the late great Michael Hutchence, was a phenomenal singer. His death was a tragedy. To see them in concert was an awesome experience. He hung himself due to depression over constant headaches that he had as a result of a cracked skull that he received from a taxi driver who threw him out of his way for being on a bike in front of his cab, and he landed on a sidewalk hitting the top of his head, cracking his skull, causing him excruciating headaches for the remainder of his life. My favorite songs by INXS are Don't Change and a song that they did for the movie Soundtrack Lost Boys called Good Times. There's two other songs that are my favorites as well, Shine Like it Does and the song Beautiful Girl.

@thomasallen5303 I also know that he had an argument on the phone earlier that day with Bob Geldof and Paula Yates, the mother of his daughter Tiger, that she and Bob were raising. He and Paula first spoke, and she told him that he couldn't see their daughter as originally planned. This made Michael upset, and he then called Bob Geldof, and the two of them had a heated argument. Later, upset, Michael took his life.

There was something about Hutch ‐ a presence, a charisma. He seemed almost shy and introverted offstage. He asked to borrow my tambourine. It was new and cost me a mint at the time. When they took the stage, he became the consummate extrovert front man. Threw my tambourine around the stage and chipped the hell out of it! I still have it to this day, and it survived many gigs since. RIP Hutch.😢

His driver always stayed in his Rolls out in the parking lot! He was very quiet and didn’t talk other than giving his order to me and I’d ask how he was doing. He was very polite and had that great beard and was the pride of Tulsa other than JJ Cale, though he left for LA back in the early 60’s.

Musically, this is such an atypical INXS song. They evolved from sounding very new wave to sounding very sort of funk rock with new wave roots. I think Hutchence is probably the greatest rock front man of the 80s and 90s. Charisma, sex appeal, and an actually good singer on top of it.

@@TheCharismaticVoice New Sensation is the song that you’re looking for to get a true sense of Michael’s voice. The “directness” you mentioned is on full display, and the song shows him in full attack mode. And he hits some deceptively high notes throughout. Please politely ignore anyone recommending Devil Inside (sorry folks) because he stays in his breathy lower register the entire song.
